Nestled on the hillside in an AONB, this stunning detached Grade II-listed barn conversion is truly a rare find. With every need having been thought of in this elegant property, it provides the ultimate retreat for a small group or family to relax. The house is surrounded by beautiful North Devon countryside with walks right from the door. Head out to the small cove beach of Hele, 2 miles away. Visit the pretty village of Berrynarbor, 2 miles drive, enjoy the magnificent sandy, surfing beaches of Woolacombe Bay 9 miles away and the nearby coastal town of Ilfracombe, 2 miles, with its spectacular coastal scenery and picturesque harbour. Ilfracombe offers plenty to do including boat trips to Lundy Island, seal spotting, fishing trips, or wander around the many arts and craft galleries. There’s also a good choice of cafes and restaurants, including a Michelin star rated offering.
The front door opens onto a spacious entrance hall with pretty slate flooring, leading to two ground-floor bedrooms. The spacious and stylish living space is all on the first floor, reached by an oak and metal tread staircase. The open-plan kitchen/diner/living room has a vaulted ceiling, glass balustrade and oak beamed ceilings which are flooded with light from the large skylights throughout. The wood burner in the sitting area provides extra warmth on cooler evenings after a day out exploring this stunning part of Devon. The modern kitchen has a dining area for everyone to enjoy a holiday meal together. Downstairs are the two elegant bedrooms with stylish décor; one hosts a super-king bed, the other has twin zip-and-links beds that can be combined into a super-king on request when booking. Both have an en-suite bathroom too. There are three steps down to the super-king room’s en-suite, which hosts a roll-top bath and separate shower. There is also a handy laundry area on the ground floor with a washing machine and tumble dryer.
There’s plenty of outside space for everyone, including a patio area with seating, a dining table and chairs, and a BBQ, as well as sun loungers – perfect for chilling with a good book – and access to the pretty meadow and a dog walking field. There’s also undercover storage for bikes and surfboards.
